Profile:
A right arm medium pace bowler and lower order batsman Boteju has
come up through the ranks to represent Sri Lanka. Boteju was a
key member of the Sri Lankan U19 team that played against the
Indian U19 side in 1996/97. Opening the bowling and batting in
the top six his performances suggested he would represent Sri
Lanka in the future. Further opportunities came against touring
sides in representative and tour matches where his performances
were useful rather than spectacular.
In the lead up to the 1999 World Cup Boteju was blooded in the
Pepsi tri-nation series in India. On debut he performed poorly.
Struggling to control the ball he was taken to task by Ganguly
and Dravid, conceding 56 in only 8 overs, and scoring only 2 runs
with the bat. His second performance against Pakistan was more
promising, bowling tidily until he ran into a withering display of
strokeplay from the enigmatic Wasim Akram. He remained in the
picture touring with the A team though his performances suggested
he may lack the strength to specialise in either department at
the highest level. Boteju will have to battle it out with fellow
hopefuls Suresh Perera and Pradeep Hewage to gain further
opportunities at international level.
